Hello, I need help in sending a trigger to external device using labview.
I have mounted strain-gauges on the beam and using labview to continously recording the strain values. Now I want to send the trigger (ttl/make/break) to outside device as soon as strain values goes over certain limit. I am new not labview and mostly using express vi's. Also I can start the strain acquisition when strain value goes over certain mark. But I am not sure on how to send the trigger pulse to the external device using labview. I am attaching the pic of some of my efforts.
System Information: Labview 8.5.1, SC-2345 connector block, SCC-SG01 Strain module, PCI-6251 DAQ Card and SCC-DO01 Digital Output Module.
Thanks,
Sine
